Halloween Banner Dog auction...

I just... Can't.

Really? List pets, and the UR Cat? My goodness, it's probably just going to be uncommon or rare!
I still can't get over that UR Cat, though!
Just, what!?

List pets certainly don't equal a single banner dog!
And I'm not even knowledgable about the Rare's List {and Advent List}!

If you are reading this, dear auction creator, I just want you to know, I'm really not trying to be rude.
it's just my opinion ;m;

    I hate when people put up a ridiculously overpaying auto and say "Hey, I can dream, right?".
    I don't think I even need to explain how infuriating this is.
    Yeah, you can dream, but if you do this, you're just plain selfish. You know you won't get that of a huge overpay, yet you still imply what you actually want for it.
    And then the desperate people come in and actually pay that much.
you're fabulous!

This was my bid. They took out the PPS and bwolf. There's about 5 tiers between mine and theirs. Meaning I'm offering multiple Advents plus an 09 very rare for the PPS, but they want a balloon dog :roll: whatever

This is why whenever I see the "I can dream" remark, I think to myself "Yeah, keep on dreaming!"

I know it's really rude, which is why I don't say it, but I get so tired of constantly seeing "I can dream" when clearly even the most desperate person wouldn't offer that. There's a time when it's overpay and when it's flat out greed, and when I see "I can dream" it's mostly one spot away from being greed.

Just because it's your dream doesn't mean you'll get it for insane underpay. If you offer overpay then it's acceptable, but when you offer an '11 uncommon for a September or Main list pet... you're sinking more than swimming.

So I sent a bid for a 2008 Pink Tess Husky and offered this

Then they sent the bid back as this with a nice little lie..
"try adding more high demand pets this guy is very close to being omgsr... This would be amazing and I would totally aouto accept it!"
Is this reportable at all..? It seems like they were trying to scam me by lying..

I can understand if people are putting BAs for auction and asking for low main or things that the BA actually goes for, but when it's something like an advent list Tess horse and they want September/main, I can't help but say the same thing :/
It's bad enough when people want overpay for their in-demand pets, but that is just silly

What gets me is how people put list pets in boosters?
Like, if anyone was gonna offer you a list pet for the Banner dog (haha good luck) I think you'd be pretty damn stupid not to auto it :L

Some people on cs just have no idea

Yes, I would say that is reportable.
